"If I wrestle as good as I did this week, then it shouldn't be hard," Kummerer said.

Kummerer, the No. 3 seed, advanced to the semifinals with a 12-2 major decision in his only bout on a Friday night when few of the top-seeded wrestlers were pushed.

One who was challenged was the second-seeded Arredondo, who slipped past Wilson freshman Tommy O'Brien with a 7-6 decision to run his record to 15-0.

Fick bounced back from the loss to Kummerer, his first of the season, to defeat Gov. Mifflin's Colin Johnson 5-0 to set up a semifinal match with Schuylkill Valley's Tanner White.

Kummerer's path to the 132-pound title will be difficult. But the road to the 126-pound crown could be even tougher.

Twin Valley's Daniel Grant and Wilson's Connor Moyer, two of the six returning champions, both are at 126 along with Giorgio, a champion in 2012.

"We do have a stacked weight class," said Grant, the champ at 120 last year. "But it's doable. You've just got to persevere and just wrestle."

Grant, the No. 1 seed, scored a fall in 1:19 to advance to a semifinal bout against Exeter's Tristan Watts.

The other semifinal will be a showdown between Moyer, last year's 113-pound champ, and Giorgio, who won at 106 two years before losing to Grant in last year's final.

"I'm just really excited to wrestle," said Giorgio, who scored a 13-0 major decision in his only bout. "It's just a chance to wrestle good people and I love doing that. The competition is great."

Moyer, the No. 3 seed who recorded a fall in 2:34, said he feels the same way.

"I'm happy that it's one of the toughest weight classes because you want tougher kids," Moyer said. "That's the only way you get better. I'm excited for it."

Moyer was one of nine Wilson wrestlers to advance to the semifinals as the Bulldogs chase their second straight team title and third in the last four years.

Among the other Bulldogs reaching the semifinals were returning champions Mike Hafer at 138, Parker Eidle at 152 and Hunter Hatlee at 220. Hatlee, a two-time champion, needed just 61 seconds to win his only bout.

Gov. Mifflin junior Jan Johnson, the other two-time champion, took just 39 seconds to win his bout at 195.

He was one of six Gov. Mifflin wrestlers to reach the semifinals. Hamburg and Schuylkill Valley also have six wrestlers in the semifinals followed by Twin Valley and Wyomissing with five each.

All 14 of the No. 1 seeds advanced and all but one of the No. 2 seeds reached the semifinals.
